Unfortunately, I can't get it to work on my Asus VG278H. The ToastyX application works immediately from Windows, without a delay to activate it. However, creating a custom 1920x1080@120Hz video mode from SwitchResX results in there being two such video modes listed, and neither of them triggers the Lightboost mode.

EDIT: Never mind, I found a working modeline on a Linux Lightboost topic, and copied it back out as PowerStrip/Modeline info:

Code: Select all

PowerStrip timing parameters:
1,920x1,080=1,920,48,32,80,1,080,3,5,61,286,700,5

Generic timing details for 1,920x1,080:
HFP=48 HSW=32 HBP=80 kHz=137 VFP=3 VSW=5 VBP=61 Hz=119

VESA detailed timing details:
PClk=286.70 H.Active=1,920 H.Blank=160 H.Offset=32 HSW=32 V.Active=1,080 V.Blank=69 V.Offset=3 VSW=5

# XFree86 modeline parameters:
Modeline "1,920x1,080" 286.700 1,920 1,968 2,000 2,080 1,080 1,083 1,088 1,149 +hsync -vsync
